The Oath of the President of the United States

US Constitution, Article II, Section 1

Before he enter on the execution of his office, he shall take the following oath or affirmation: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States."

The case could be made that Obama has violated the oath of the office of the Presidency of the United States in not closing the borders at the threat of a global pandemic of the Mexican flu, the violations of the U.S. Constitution in the CIFTA, and his refusal to clarify the circumstances of his birth. Think about it.

In any discussion concerning authority and who yields the power, there is always the inevitable break down of rhetoric into chaos vs. truth and the history of power. Power, in this case, is the final designation of White Sands National Monument as a World Heritage Site and what ‘power’ or authority that brings to the existing power structure and accepted authority already here.History is an important factor in determining our future, and our children and grandchildren’s future. We need to know exactly who and what we are dealing with here. Where did this ideology come from? Are these agendas similar to anything else that has existed in history? What are the facts concerning this global agenda and who is credible in its defense?I offer this particular writing to enlighten the truth seekers as well as ‘myth sayers’.There are accredited quotes from controversial books as well as from books written on history. We seem to be a community in search of facts and truth concerning this issue.Who will come forth with the facts and who will come forth with emotional irrationalities?

UNESCO

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization was conceived by a group of academics and scientists in 1945, in London. Though the original group of intellectuals who put UNESCO together probably had best intentions of sharing and preserving their knowledge and others great gifts of science and literature, their first director-general was immediately biased against nationalism and religion. A great start for a ‘great’ organization. The original director-general of UNESCO was Sir Julian Huxley, the British scientist.

From THE BEAST ON THE EAST RIVER by Nathan Tabor, on Huxley.

Page 13

“But Sir Julian was also a militant atheist and an ardent evolutionist who rejected all forms of religion and believed that UNESCO’s guiding philosophy should be “a scientific world humanism, global in extent and evolutionary in background.”Sir Julian unequivocally expressed these secular humanist views in his book, UNESCO: ITS PURPOSE AND PHILOSOPHY, written in 1948, a copy of which is proudly posted on UNESCO’S website today.“The world today is in the process of becoming one, and …a major aim of UNESCO must be to help in the speedy and satisfactory realization of the process,” Huxley insisted. He added that “political unification is some sort of world government will be necessary for the definitive attainment” of human evolutionary progress.But what about Huxley’s basis for his secular humanist moral authority?“It will be one of the major tasks of the philosophy division of UNESCO to stimulate, in conjunction with the natural and social scientists, the quest for a restatement of morality that shall be in harmony with modern knowledge and adapted to the fresh functions imposed on ethics by the world of today,” Huxley wrote.”[1]

Restatement of morality is an interesting term. I wonder who or what the organization is that is going to “restate morality” in Otero County? The Churches and families of Otero County have done a pretty good job of teaching and practicing Christian morality. Do we need to restate Christian morality? We already have a division of ethnocentric views in our own cultural landscape: those who ‘believe in Christ’ and those ‘who don’t’. There is no manmade law mandating that we all believe in Christ. Would Huxley’s “modern knowledge” and “fresh functions imposed on the ethics by the world of today” replace Christian doctrine and American nationalism and patriotism? Let me remind you, that the original debate in the county was about the World Heritage Site designation out at White Sands. Such a benign designation by such a prestigious world organization has no restraints or implications, only a plague. Yet the first director-general of UNESCO conceived this restatement of morality. I know many of you WHS proponents knew this and probably just glossed over Huxley’s world vision of the future when you called your opponents black helicopter nuts or deceptive petition gatherers.

Huxley sounds like a socialist to me. He’s already given UNESCO its marching orders. Did you know that Huxley was a fan of Marx, and of contemporary Marxists of his day? For those of you still looking for black helicopters, I’m referring to Karl Marx and not any of the Marx Brothers. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engles penned the COMMUNIST MANIFESTO. We’ve expressed concerns about private property rights in our county if the WHS designation becomes a reality. Let’s see what Marx has to say about private property. Remember, Huxley’s a big fan of Karl Marx.

From the COMMUNIST MANIFESTO:

“You are horrified at our intending to do away with private property. But in your existing society, private property is already done way with for nine-tenths of the population; its existence for the few is solely due to its non-existence in the hands of those nine-tenths. You reproach us; therefore, with intending to do away with a form of property, the necessary condition for whose existence is the non-existence of any property for the immense majority of society.In one word, you reproach us with intending to do away with your property. Precisely so, that is just what we intend.”[2]

That’s a nice connection; Sir Julian Huxley, Karl Marx, UNESCO, and the World Heritage Site designation of White Sands. Am I sounding like an alarmist? I’m giving the reader history; real, factual history…you know…stuff that happened in the past.By the way, this is history the revisionists haven’t gotten to yet.

Just how would Huxley and Marx achieve their restating morality and the doing away of private property? We have to look no farther than the 1948 UNESCO Eleventh International Conference on Public Education, in Geneva, Switzerland.

From THE BEAST ON THE EAST RIVER by Nathan Tabor.

Page 16

“Based on the results of that conference, UNESCO then published a ten-volume series of instruction manuals for teachers, entitled TOWARD WORLD UNDERSTANDING, Volume One of that series asserted that “…one of the chief aims of education today should be the preparation of children and adolescents to participate consciously and actively in the building of a world society…[and] this preparation should include not only the acquisition of skills, but more particularly, the formation and development of psychological attitudes favorable to the construction, maintenance and advancement of a united world.”

Volume Five of this teacher’s series criticized parents for not being properly “world-minded” and for “infecting” their children with unacceptable attitudes of “nationalism, chauvinism, and sclerosis of the mind.” The teachers’ job would then be to “correct many of the errors of home training” that have produced “attitudes running directly counter to the development of international understanding.”

The manual then warned the teachers “…as long as the child breathes the poisoned air of nationalism, education in world-mindedness can produce only precarious results. As we have pointed out, it is frequently the family that infects the child with extreme nationalism. The school should therefore use the means described earlier to combat family attitudes that favor jingoism.”[3]

Our children will be the instruments of restating morality, doing away with private property and that nasty nationalism those socialists and communists cringe at. Cringe at this; Al Gore’s alarmist documentary “AN INCONVEINANT TRUTH” is required viewing in many middle and high schools in the U.S. I thought the gore (no pun intended) flicks I saw in driver’s education were bad enough. Now we subject ‘the children’ to more Gore flicks? Shouldn’t we challenge the intellect instead of indoctrinating the child? Who are these kids going to consider a role model?Al Gore?

Let me challenge the intellect with some recent history about Al Gore.

From the POLITICALLY INCORRECT GUIDE TO GLOBAL WARMING AND ENVIRONMENTALISM by Christopher C. HornerSenior Fellow at the Competitive Enterprise Institute.

Page 99

“Next up on the “hit’ parade for Al Gore et al, after Gore’s inauguration was to chase Dr. William Happer out of the U.S. Department of Energy. Though at first asked to stay on as director of energy research by the Clinton White House, Happer subsequently made the mistake of disputing Gore. In REASON magazine at the time, journalist Ron Bailey told the tale of Happer’s fall.Bailey focuses on Happer’s appearance before a House subcommittee, in which he delivered “cautious testimony…at odds with Gore’s alarmist views.” Specifically, Happer uttered this scandalous sentence: “I think that there probably has been some exaggeration of the dangers of ozone and global climate change.”Possibly Happer was thinking of the part in EARTH IN THE BALANCE where Gore writes about chlorine from Manmade refrigerants called chlorofluorocarbons (CFCS), “Like an acid, it burns a hole in the Earth’s protective ozone shield.”No one but Happer knows. However, following this testimony, Happer says, “I was told that science was not going to intrude on policy,” and that he had made his way onto the ‘enemies list” of Gore aide Katie McGinty.”[4]

Compare Dr. Happer’s experience with Gore and Katie McGinty, to Russian physicists and their dealings with the Marxists under Stalin.

From STALIN AND THE BOMB by David HollowayPage 21-22

“Physicists came under increasing pressure in the 1930s to show their loyalty to the Party and the State. The intellectual climate of the country changed drastically for the worse at the end of the 1920s. The Academy of Sciences lost the relative intellectual autonomy it had enjoyed in the 1920s and was brought under increasing party and government control. Collaboration with the regime was no longer enough; the Party now demanded political and ideological commitment. Scientific disciplines came under scrutiny from militant party philosophers who wanted to root out any political or philosophical deviations that scientific theories might betray. These philosophers claimed the right to judge whether theories in the natural sciences were really scientific or not. What was at issue in these discussions was the question of authority in science: who had the right to say what constituted a valid scientific theory – the scientists or the Communist Party.”[5]

If you’re thinking throwing Al Gore in the mix, as vice-president during the Clinton years is a stretch, think again. Think about what Al Gore is saying now. Too much of a stretch to even be a coincident? How many ‘coincidents’ do you want in your backyard? For those of you who have a lingering desire to see Al Gore be President someday, and you’re wondering why I mention Al Gore, now in this writing: think the big picture.

What is our part of the ‘big picture’? Our future, our commitment to our children, our nation’s security (Holloman AFB and White Sands Missile Ranger), and our ability to control our sovereign nation, the United States of America; not the global experiment started over a century ago that has infected so much of the world.

This is where I send my designation of Al Gore’s Tennessee property as aWorld Heretic Site. I’m going with the flow of law here…global modern law to be specific. I’m empowered by the mere fact I’m a global citizen to propose designation of any cultural or natural landscape on the face of the planet.

(Parody follows)

FROM THE WORLD HERETIC SITE COMMITTEE

Dear Mr. Gore:

You will be pleased to know that I have proposed your Tennessee property for designation as a World Heretic Site. Such a designation is benign and only adds an extra layer of bureaucracy and protection. (I think you’ll agree that we’ll skip over the messy controversy of your opulent lifestyle that generates massive carbon footprints that Godzilla could stand in and barely see over the edge…snicker…snicker). One of the global benefits of World Heretic Site is the creation of a wild life corridor right through the middle of your property. This wildlife corridor will allow the natural migration flow of endangered species such as polar bears, the spotted glacier dust mite, the Rocky Mountain Whooping trout, the greenie bellied fuzz gnat, the webbed- foot rock fobe, the unskilled Mexican hominid, and the Tennessee Road Apple.If you or any local groups representing public lands or private property rights have concerns or just plain opposition to this planned designation; you may send your concerns to…oh darn…where’s that address? I’ll get back to you with that address.In conclusion, welcome to the community of global citizens. I and my fellow global citizens eagerly await your support and acceptance of this proposed designation of your home (I’m referring to the opulent one…do you ever have yard sales?)…as a World Heretic Site!

Sincerely:

Global Citizen

FROM THE DESK OF AL GORE

Dear World Heretic Site:

Due to concerns of keeping my family out of the public eye, I must protest this intrusion on my families and mine private lives. I can offer suggestions of other sites worthy of your prestigious designation. (This is a nice way of saying ‘back off’…you’re clouding my political expediency issues with your global agenda…GOT IT?...geez).

Sincerely:

Al the Earth Warrior

(Parody ends)

Global agenda is one of those ambiguous terms. Is there a global agenda intent on indoctrinating our children and abolishing private property rights and national sovereignty?

Karl Marx weighs in with this gem from the COMMUNIST MANIFESTO:

“Communism deprives no man of the power to appropriate the products of society; all that it does is to deprive him of the power to subjugate the labor of others b means of such appropriation.

…All objections urged against the communistic mode of producing and appropriating material products, have, in the same way, been urged against the communism modes of producing and appropriating intellectual products. Just as, to the bourgeois, the disappearance of class property is the disappearance of production itself, so the disappearance of class culture is to him identical with the disappearance of all culture.

That culture, the loss of which he laments, is, for the enormous majority, a mere training to act as a machine.”

Wouldn’t loss of ethics in public office, indoctrination of children, restating morality, and a one-world government qualify for ‘loss of culture?

Marx continues:

“Abolition of the family! Even the most radical flare up at this infamous proposal of the Communists.On what foundation is the present family, the bourgeois family, based? On capital, on private gain. In its completely developed form this family exists only among the bourgeois. But this state of things finds its complement in the practical absence of the family among the proletarians, and in public prostitution.The bourgeois family will vanish as a matter of course when its complement vanishes, and both will vanish with the vanishing capital.Do you charge us with wanting to stop the exploitation of children by their parents? To this crime we plead guilty.But, you will say, we destroy the most hallowed of relations, when we replace home education by social.And your education! Is not that also social, and determined by the social conditions under which you educate, by the intervention, direct or indirect, of society, by means of schools, etc.? The Communists have not invented the intervention of society in education; they merely seek to alter the character of that intervention, and to rescue education from the influence of the ruling class.The bourgeois clap-trap about the family and education, about the hallowed co-relations of parent and child, becomes all the more disgusting; the more, by the action of modern industry, all family ties among the proletarians are torn asunder, and their children transformed into simple articles of commerce and instruments of labor.”

Marx advocates for destroying the traditional family. How’s the American family fairing today under the assault of gratuitous sex and violence in the media, from video and computer games, rap music and some rock genera, and the influence of this global agenda on curriculum in our schools?

Marx on nationalism:

“The Communists are further reproached with the siring to abolish countries and nationality.…The supremacy of the proletariat will cause them to vanish still faster. United action, of the leading civilized countries at least, is one of the first conditions for the emancipation of the proletariat.…The charges against communism made from a religious, philosophical, and, generally, from an ideological standpoint are not deserving of series examination.”

Marx on ‘eternal truths’:

There are, besides, eternal truths, such as Freedom, Justice, etc. that are common to all states of society. But communism abolishes eternal truths, it abolishes all religion, and all morality, instead of constituting them on a new basis; it therefore acts in contradiction to all past historical experience.”

And finally, the Communist Manifesto:

1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes.

2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.

3. Abolition of all right of inheritance.

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.

5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.

6. Centralization of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the state.

7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the state; the bringing into cultivation of wastelands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.

8. Equal liability of all to labor. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.

9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country, by a more equable distribution of the population over the country.

10. Free education for all the children in public schools. Abolition of children’s factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc.

Marx’s vision for the future rings familiar with comments I’ve heard of how the United States has changed in the minds of older Americans. Did any of Marx’s ideas sound familiar? Have you seen anything close to Marxism occurring in your community?

The global agenda of UNESCO and its supporters sounds eerily like a rehash of Karl Marx. We’ve covered, together, the beginnings of UNESCO, umbrella organization for the World Heritage Site Committee, comparison of communist ideologies and Al Gore’s methodology (which is my opinion, you make up your mind), intellect vs. indoctrination of ‘the children’, ‘restating morality’, and the challenge to look at the ‘big picture’, which WE ARE A PART OF.

Federal law is supreme PROVIDED IT IS NOT IN CONFLICT with State law....

...which means if it is not one of the enumerated powers granted to the United States state law is supreme.

28 USC § 1652. State laws as rules of decision

The laws of the several states, except where the Constitution or treaties of the United States or Acts of Congress otherwise require or provide, shall be regarded as rules of decision in civil actions in the courts of the United States, in cases where they apply.

The Supremacy Clause is very specific as to what it says.“This Constitution, and the laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof, and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land, and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.”

To fully understand exactly what this means you have to go to Webster’s Dictionary 1828 for the definition of, “notwithstanding.”

NOTWITHSTAND'ING, the participle of withstand, with not prefixed, and signifying not opposing; nevertheless. It retains in all cases its participial signification.Special thanks to Danny Martinez via R L for getting this valuable information to us.

ALLODIAL LAND TITLE

"An allodial title was bestowed, by law, upon the land with unalienability forever. No government, agency, bank or other sovereign power could place any lien, attachment or encumbrance on land held in an allodial state. An allodial title is derived from the original, federal land patent. "Land Patents" are still today the highest evidence of title and have never been refuted by any court of competent jurisdiction."

PUBLIC LANDS v. FEDERAL LANDS

Submitted by R L Possey.

There is a very strong misconception that all of the lands in the United States that are managed by the Federal Government are “Public Lands”. Actually there are very few Public Lands and the vast majority of lands managed by the Federal Government are “Federal Lands”. “The term public lands, as commonly perceived by the public, indicates lands owned entirely by the federal government and by extension of the citizens of the United States who supposedly own equal shares of the federal government’s assets. Certain federal lands do meet this criterion such as some portions of our national parks and some portions of some game refuges. These are areas where the federal government owns all of the values of the land. However, even in national parks private concessioners own a possessory interest in their visitor facilities that is fully protected by the Concession Policy Act of 1965. However, the vast majority of our federal lands do not meet the criterion of total ownership in fee. Most of our federal lands, particularly those under the management of the Bureau of Land Management and the Forest Service, are split estate lands. Lands in this category constitute nearly one third of the land area of he United States. The federal land management agencies have for the past two decades followed a policy of attempting to deny the existence of private rights in the federal lands. They have attempted to eliminate private rights by one device or another, the establishment of wilderness areas, the protection of wild horses and burros, and the creation on many other special designations that appeal to “the public good” but in fact act to destroy existing private rights. The agencies have attempted to encumber private rights in the federal lands with an overkill of regulations. This attempt to render existing private rights uneconomic has for all practical purposes become the major focus of current federal land policy.”

Bruce Thompson

http://thewesterner.blogspot.com/Tuesday, September 16, 2008NM game director's hunting license may be revoked The head of New Mexico's Game and Fish Department could lose his hunting license for two years after he was accused of illegally shooting a deer on private land. An independent hearing officer heard testimony Monday about a November 2007 incident in which director Bruce Thompson shot a deer on the Diamond T Ranch west of Roswell. It's illegal to hunt on private property in New Mexico without permission from the landowner. The state Game Commission, which has the final say, will likely consider the hearing officer's recommendation at its Oct. 2 meeting....Let's transfer more assets to him too.

NM Game & Fish Director Gets Hunting License Revoked for Two Years

The New Mexico Game Commission on Thursday revoked state Game and Fish Department director Bruce Thompson's hunting privileges for two years, the result of Thompson's shooting a deer on private property nearly a year ago in Lincoln County. Thompson, who has headed Game and Fish since 2003, maintained that he inadvertently used incorrect Global Positioning System coordinates that put him on the privately owned Diamond T Ranch instead of adjacent public land.

Public "Input" Sought in Wolf Removal Policy

LAS CRUCES, N.M.—State and federal officials are considering changes to a controversial rule that requires a Mexican gray wolf to be removed from the wild if it preys on livestock three times in a one-year period.Gov. Bill Richardson has called for the suspension of the rule, known as Standard Operation Procedure 13, to halt the removal of wolves, which numbered about 52 at the end of 2007. Removal can be either by capturing or killing the wolf.The proposed policy change attempts to address a scenario in which a rancher might intentionally lure a wolf to attack cattle and force its removal, said Terry Johnson, endangered species coordinator for the Arizona Game and Fish Department.

USDA Issues Memo Mandating NAIS Premises Registration

A new memo out of USDA shows they are pushing ahead with NAIS despite the public protests and even state laws barring mandatory programs.USDA recently issued a memo to its "Veterinary Services Management Team" that requires NAIS premises registration for various disease program activities. (Veterinary Services Memorandum No. 575.19, posted on our Government Documents Page at http://rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001NLMsNA8ne5ot_F-Hl89HTrVs6pIBzn5B2QO8NCYTXe-jF_A_UJAFYeetzcSNK0g61iVHffD3RDVTvv8JS8lKlqzvSdpTei1SXVWmMO4l4Z5ho-0bDnOAdlbipZ3-Nt--6k73kYItYSMxe5Pk6O3Kuq4bRvO4ot7H )The memo includes activities such as vaccinations, testing, and applying official ear tags, for programs for every livestock species, ranging from brucellosis to scrapies to equine infectious anemia. The memo says that people who refuse to have their farms registered will be registered against their will. Thus, USDA has officially abandoned the supposed "voluntary" nature of NAIS. Now animal owners who take government-required steps such as testing and vaccinating their animals may find themselves enrolled in the NAIS premises registration database with or without their consent.

Great American Jobs Scam, Add it to your Christmas list for City and County Commissioners

For the past 20 years, corporations have been receiving huge tax breaks and subsidies in the name of "jobs, jobs, jobs." But, as Greg LeRoy demonstrates in this important new book, it's become a costly scam.

Playing states and communities off against each other in a bidding war for jobs, corporations reduce their taxes to next-to-nothing and win subsidy packages that routinely exceed $100,000 per job. But the subsidies come with few strings attached. So companies feel free to provide fewer jobs, or none at all, or even outsource and lay people off. They are also free to pay poverty wages without health care or other benefits.

All too often, communities lose twice. They lose jobs--or gain jobs so low-paying they do nothing to help the community--and lose revenue due to the huge corporate tax breaks. That means fewer resources for maintaining schools, public services, and infrastructure. In the end, the local governments that were hoping for economic revitalization are actually worse off. They're forced to raise taxes on struggling small businesses and working families, or reduce services, or both.

Keep This in Your Memory Banks, RS 2477 Roads to Be Closed in LNF

County vows to fight Forest Service over roadsby Karl Anderson – Staff Writer

Otero County plans to take on the Forest Service regarding road access under the Revised Statute 2477, a provision in the 1866 Mining Law that states any road under county jurisdiction, regardless of when that jurisdiction was established, supersedes any subsequent jurisdiction claimed the any other entity, including the Forest Service.In a discussion at its work session Wednesday, the Otero County Commission expressed its intent to take on the Forest Service regarding roads in the Lincoln Nation Forrest.“We want to stop the closure of any roads and trails by the Forest Service,” said Commission Chairman Doug Moore. “If they want to challenge any of the roads we claim under R.S. 2477, we’ll duke it out in court.”“If we have to list every goat trail, butterfly path, and meteor pathway, we will,” Commissioner Clarissa McGinn said. “We want a preemptive action to keep these closures from happening. These closures are going to take place very soon if we don’t stop this.”Moore said that Forest Service plan is to close nearly half the roads and trails in the Lincoln Nation National Forest.“Give me some language that will stop us from losing any of the roads and trails we want to keep open for the use and enjoyments of our citizens, “ Moore said. “The cat fight will be on. We intend to pass it on Thursday.”Otero County Administrator Dr. Martin Moore told Doug Moore that R.S. 2477 reads still owned by the county will include ones that were grandfathered in prior to the 1956 as well as those that existed prior to 1976.Two large maps were used as references during the meeting. The maps showed all roads with R.S. 2477 status claimed by the county prior to each respective date.“I want a map combining the two,” McGinn said. “I then want to claim anything on that map that is ours. It needs to be encompassing enough to include all roads, trails, pathways, mines and anything else.”Doug Moore said GPS coordinates will have to be utilized in the final process.“A road does not even have to be one that still exists in order to qualify,” he said. “It could be nothing now but a jeep trail or a footpath. Were laying claim to all that is ours, and we’re keeping them open for everyone to enjoy. “We will make this official at our regular meeting on Thursday.”

Tasers can cause fatal cardiac arrest and are even more dangerous if the subject is agitated, stressed and experiencing pain from the high-voltage device, two top Vancouver heart specialists said Tuesday.

The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice-President chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows:

Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.

(The Electors shall meet in their respective States, and vote by Ballot for two persons, of whom one at least shall not lie an Inhabitant of the same State with themselves. And they shall make a List of all the Persons voted for, and of the Number of Votes for each; which List they shall sign and certify, and transmit sealed to the Seat of the Government of the United States, directed to the President of the Senate. The President of the Senate shall, in the Presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the Certificates, and the Votes shall then be counted. The Person having the greatest Number of Votes shall be the President, if such Number be a Majority of the whole Number of Electors appointed; and if there be more than one who have such Majority, and have an equal Number of Votes, then the House of Representatives shall immediately chuse by Ballot one of them for President; and if no Person have a Majority, then from the five highest on the List the said House shall in like Manner chuse the President. But in chusing the President, the Votes shall be taken by States, the Representation from each State having one Vote; a quorum for this Purpose shall consist of a Member or Members from two-thirds of the States, and a Majority of all the States shall be necessary to a Choice. In every Case, after the Choice of the President, the Person having the greatest Number of Votes of the Electors shall be the Vice President. But if there should remain two or more who have equal Votes, the Senate shall chuse from them by Ballot the Vice-President.)(This clause in parentheses was superseded by the 12th Amendment.)

The Congress may determine the Time of chusing the Electors, and the Day on which they shall give their Votes; which Day shall be the same throughout the United States.

No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

(In Case of the Removal of the President from Office, or of his Death, Resignation, or Inability to discharge the Powers and Duties of the said Office, the same shall devolve on the Vice President, and the Congress may by Law provide for the Case of Removal, Death, Resignation or Inability, both of the President and Vice President, declaring what Officer shall then act as President, and such Officer shall act accordingly, until the Disability be removed, or a President shall be elected.)(This clause in parentheses has been modified by the 20th and 25th Amendments.)

The President shall, at stated Times, receive for his Services, a Compensation, which shall neither be increased nor diminished during the Period for which he shall have been elected, and he shall not receive within that Period any other Emolument from the United States, or any of them.

Before he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation:

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

6/11/08 Hi Janet:Thanks for your email. Iknow Michael Nivision is leaving for DC today and will not be at the commissionmeeting tomorrow night to report on the Dry Canyon issue raised at the lastmeeting. I have directed staff to get any and all information regarding this andwill forward what I find to you.On the World Heritage discussion from last meeting:I went back and looked at the minutes from the initial direction tostaff dated Jan.24th regular meeting. There is a lengthly discussion regardingthe letter to be sent to the Secy of the Interior as well as some otherinformation and actions that will be taken. Per the legal explanation in theminutes, Dan stated that the US has a seat on the Board from 2005-09. Duringthis time frame, no country seated on the UN board may receive the formalnomination for designation. By expiration of that board seat in Oct 09- theCounty will formally contact NPS regarding this ordinance and prior ordinancesrequiring participation and notification of any nominations, identify thepersonnel connected with the international affairs group working on thenominations, site violations of the people identified with the nomination andviolations of NEPA and all 4 ordinances. We have sent a letter regardingopposition to the World Heritage Designation/and tentative list. Although thereis time involved to take action on all these suggested actions, we need to keepit rolling. I will make sure this is on our projects in progress so that it iscontinually followed and updated.

Hope there is a good showing forthe tax hearing. I dont believe there will be action with just Doug and I theretomorrow. I understand the spaceport authority is interested in polling thecommunity to gage support on the issue prior to a ballot question. I could goon.

I let you know any other information I find on these 2 issuesthat you have requested.

NM Spaceport Contractor DMJM

New York Times, July 15, 2008, Expert Hired at Ground Zero Despite '05 Ethics ViolationThe Port Authority has named an engineering consultant to the World Trade Center project who resigned from the Metropolitan Transportation Authority three years ago over his dealings with an architectural firm that also plays an important role at ground zero.The engineer, Joseph N. Siano, is to be a consultant to the chief of capital planning, David Tweedy. In describing his new job, the authority said Mr. Siano ''will focus on engineering analyses required to advance'' the trade center and other projects.Until April 2005, Mr. Siano was a senior vice president at M.T.A. Capital Construction, which manages major building projects. In a proceeding before the state's Ethics Commission, he admitted violating the law by having accepted gifts from the architectural firm DMJM Harris (now DMJM H&N/Aecom), which was doing business with the transportation authority.

GEORGE MASON UNIVERSITY STUDY ON COMMERCIAL SPACEPORTS: 2002

Page: 8

" Today, almost two dozen active spaceports worldwide are capable of launching payloads into orbit; two of them have launched people. Of the four US civil spaceports licensed by the FAA, three have launched commercial payloads: Spaceport Florida, California Spaceport, and the Kodiak Launch Complex (KLC) in Alaska. The fourth spaceport is the Virginia Space Flight Center (VSFC) in Wallops Island, Virginia. Despite this encouraging start, the FAA Office of Commercial Space Development estimates that in the next decade, an annual average of 46 commercial payloads will be flown on 32launches worldwide.6 This is not nearly enough demand to profitably support current US civil spaceports, let alone new spaceports."

Janet writes in a post below:"Would the Spaceport Authority protect against the takeover by foreign concerns? Nope. In fact Spaceport Authority has already contracted with DMJM for architectural services. Sounds benign, right? Turns out that DMJM - Daniel, Mann, Johnson, & Mendenhall (architecture, engineering, and construction services firm) is a global firm headquartered in Los Angeles. Mr. Landeene said he did not know where their headquarters are - who believed that whopper?DMJM will be awarding the contracts for construction and probably the management of the spaceport. Let's take a look at who DMJM contracts with and you decide if any contractor or business in Southern New Mexico has a snowball's chance of participating in NM Spaceport:

If the Spaceport gets voted in by Otero County Republicans and other registered electors, I'm betting at some point we will be asked to pay for our carbon 'sins'by paying or buying carbon offsets from the next 'green' huckster that has their environmentally friendly hand out.

HUNTSVILLE ALABAMA & PROJECT REDSTONE

Without going into a history lecture; the pictures below are of Huntsville, Alabama. Spaceport spokesman, Steve Landain, presented to the Otero County Commissioners on Aug. 21 at the commissioners meeting. One of his selling points was bringing the space industry to Alamogordo. Huntsville and project Redstone were built around gantry launched rockets and Werner von Braun. Look at the Spaceport'shorizonal launched plane with a small booster rocket to propel it into sub-space, non-orbital 'flight'. Does anyone really believe that type of craft will create a space industry in Alamogordo, similar to Huntsville, Alabama?

Dangerous Business by Pat Choate

From one of the most respected and vigorous economic thinkers in Washington, a wake-up call about the perils of unfettered globalization. In this impassioned, prescient book, Pat Choate shows us that while increased worldwide economic integration has some benefits for our fiscal efficiency, it also creates dependencies, vulnerabilities, national security risks, and social costs that now outweigh its advantages. He takes the long view of developments such as technology-driven progress, the offshoring of jobs, and open trade, arguing that current U.S. policies are leading to worldwide economic and political instability, in much the same way as before the Great Depression.

U.N. World Heritage Site Designation for White Sands N M Update Promised at Otero County Commission

At the Regular Meeting on 5/15/07 county attorney, Dan Bryant, promised to get an update on the WHS designation and get that information to ORF co-administrator Janet White who made the request. County Commissioner Clarissa McGinn noted that the last action of the commission was to direct Dan Bryant to send letters to the Department of Interior seeking a dispostion of the designation. Apparently, this was not done and if I am wrong I will put up a notice. In the meantime, we await Mr. Bryant's communication.Also presented to the Commission were two photos of large boulders being placed in Dry Canyon behind locked gates to Lincoln National Forest. Who is liable in the event of flood? Did the FS do an EA, CE, etc? What is the purpose of the boulders? A reliable source said they are there to be used to block off access by off road vehicles. Commissioner Nivison was told they are being stored there for future use in a FS building. Photo below.
